Availability and restrictions

Pokémon and Forms That Cannot Be Stored in HOME

Sources checked:

Registering a form in HOME’s Pokédex is different from storing that exact form in a box. Some variants cannot enter; others revert or need separation first. These restrictions do not imply that the ordinary species is excluded.

Variants that cannot enter HOME

Spiky-eared Pichu, Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire’s Cosplay Pikachu and the Let’s Go partner Pikachu and Eevee cannot enter HOME. Ordinary Pichu, Pikachu and Eevee are not excluded by these special-variant restrictions.

Battle transformations

Pokémon: 155

The transformed battle body cannot be stored. A Gigantamax-capable Pokémon can enter in its ordinary body and retain its Factor. Pokédex registration may still record a temporary form.

Forms that revert for transfer

Pokémon: 47

These forms revert for storage; held items stay in the source game. Some games use key items instead, but that does not make the changed form storable. Check the exact game’s transfer rules.

Combinations requiring separation

Pokémon: 6

Separate the combination in its source game using the fusion item, then transfer each component. A fused partner cannot be independently deposited while it remains inside the combination.

Restrictions by source game

Pokémon: 1

Comparison or prerequisite Pokémon

Spinda from GO or Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl has source-specific restrictions; Spinda is not globally barred. GO costumes and Shadow Pokémon, Eggs, and Pokémon recruited in Champions have additional transfer restrictions. HOME visitors to Champions remain HOME Pokémon.
